Would be a balanced hard if you received tokens equal to half of your devotion, rounded up. As it stands, this card ends games if you can't immediately remove it. Sick, sick finisher that dodges most ways to burn it. 5/5 easy.

One thing I like of its protection of red is that it might encourage Modern decks to play removal other than just red burn spells and terminate.

The hate rating on this card is astounding. This is in no way a 3.6 with rounding up. The card does what it does and it is good at it, but imposes some fairly heavy deck building restrictions as well. As in restrictions that actually matter unlike Delver of Secrets. I'm somewhat joking here, but Delver's restrictions more restrict the type of deck as opposed to both the type of deck and the overall quality of the cards. Also, this card is beautifully designed. It has a block mechanic but instead ofmerely being pushed till it is playable the block mechanic actually bleeds flavor as well, it solves the issue of itself being too good against spot removal in an incredibly elegant way, and did I mention flavor? it has flavor in spades.

This guy is just begging to be played in a deck with Grand Architect. It just seems like the two were made for each other.
edit: I also wouldn't be surprised if this card's design was inspired by Sengir Autocrat.
